Off to the Moon!
Wk&t ife Cooperation?
In -eveiy time of national crisis or emergency, we are
M^gied to "cooperate." The word is used almost as though it
A^ferfe iViagie, *as if, when by some happy chance we should
aJchieve a 'state of cooperation, all our troubles would disap-
$£at. Tt really doesn't need a national emergency to tell us
mat. We know perfectly well that if all groups in this
feouhtiry, or in the world, would work together, nine-tenths
i>f Our difficulties would disappear.
But with, the repetition of the word cooperation has
'ccMtrie ibhfusioh. Each group wants its opponents to cooperate with it — only when, they say cooperate they generally
mean give in. Khrushchev is the perfect example of this line
of reasoning. And each group unfortunately uses as an excuse for its own shortcomings, the statement that the other
side won't cooperate, forgetting that there must be.a real
"give and take" attitude, not merely the will to take.
Let's not try to determine where the blame lies, but get
back to the fact of just what cooperation is. According to
the dictionary it is "joint action — working together."
Tlie Communists don't think we can do it. They fear
freedom. They believe that a nation of free men will not
cooperate, that they will pull in a thousand different and
selfish directions at once — and get nowhere. But they are
ignorant of the basic meaning of cooperation.
. Cooperation-is a JOINT action. It means that all-will
haiV6 "to freely and intelligently move together, like a machine.where each part has its particular function to fulfill,
biit also like a machine that is built correctly, so that each
part is capable of taking up its share of the stress and
strain.
By all means let us cooperate — but cooperate by each
doing the full measure of his share in the work for the
common good. Cooperate not in comparison with another's
cooperation with you—but to the fullest extent of your own
powers. The command is, as it always has been, "Give and
it shall be given unto you . . . For with the same measure
ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again."
Answer To Terror
It is not surprising that the Soviet announcement of renewed nuclear weapons tests sounds to many observers like
tlie kneel of doom. This reaction has prevaded much of the
early comment from tlie world's great capitals, and there is
good reason, for it.
There is a strong likelihood, foi1 example, that the So-
"viet move reflects failure to understand the attitude and
motivation which undergird the West's position. The Kremlin appears to be unconvinced, despite President Kennedy's
special meeting with'Khrushchev to make our determination
unmistakably clear to him, that the West has, both the will
and capacity to resist. Tlie danger of Soviet miscalculation,
a danger moi'e serious than almost any other, now seems to
be heightened.
,For all its perilous implications, however, the Soviet an-
notocement also m&y bring certain advantages to the West.
It is riot soft, headed optimism, but a realistic effort tob seek
out what is best in a bad situation, that brings us to this
conclusion. By the manner and timing.of its declaration the
Krerrilin has blatantly announced to the woVld-—and particularly to the uncommitted nations whose delegates were assembling in Belgrade when Mosco\y spoke — that its method is the method of terror and violence, and that it seeks by
threats to bend mankind to its will.
The contrast between this and the West's patient ef-
f orts.to .bring about workable .control ,and inspection of nuclear tests -will not be lost upon the woilld. This will be especially true ii the West makes full use of the propaganda advantage-which the Kremlin has callously provided.
Loyalty Is Liberty
Every day should be Loyialty Day in America.
Tru# ^mericahism meahS ld^alty to. our' country and
loyalty to the ideals Upon which the United- States of America was ,fourided.
Th&e are the de£j> .tones'-..of freedom' in action. As Patriots, w6 caimiot fpSfitmii^ .tKeSer .icte&lji., WHen1 we fail to
practice the Kind of idealism- to which we aire pledged, free^
dbm suffers arid the -enemies of freedom forc& tfejoice. •

The German student is 16 year-old Christiane Ziehms
from Karlsruhe, midway between Heidelberg and Stuttgart,
in the Rhine Valley.

She has registered for the senior
class at Hoover High and is
taking courses in chemistry,
English, American government

Home "back home" to Chris
tiano is an eight suite apart

contrast with our single family
homes and large lawns are a-
mong the greatest differences
she has noticed. Karlsruhe is in
a prosperous industrial area
producing mainly cement a n cl
sewing machines.
Christiane's father is an instructor at a radio school ancl
lectures, in several languages,
on building and repairing radios. Her mother is a housewife and there are two brothers, a 21 year-old in the Navy
and a 20 year-old university
student.
Her oldest brother's experience as a college exchange student in St. Paul, Minn, a few-
years ago and an article in her
church bulletin influenced her
to apply for the program. Her
brother was also her greatest
aid in persuading her parents
to let her home to the. United
States for a year.
Thc school system in' Christiane's home town is divided
into two programs, four years
of elementary and nine of high
school for those interested in
going to icollege, and eight years
work for one year at h e l

freshman year of college.
Christiane bicycles the three

mnhies In Brief
The welcome mat is being laid as the long-awaited annexation to tiie South nears its final stage. At its regular
meeting Monday night, City Council unanimously approved
the first reading of Ordinance 2167 to annex 728.68 acres
of Plain Township.
The addition of the large
residential section would increase the size of the community approximately 2o per
cent and up the population
more than 3,000.
Although there is no industry in tlie area to be annexed,
the section includes more
than 900 homes and Orchard
Hill Elementary School.
Boundaries of the area arc
55th St. and Schneider Rd. on
the north, Frazer Ave. on the
east. 50th St. on the south and
Jonathan Ave. and Arrowhead
Country Club on the west.
Annexation proceedings, initiated in June. 1960, were delayed, when opponents of t h e
annexation filed lawsuits in January. Both suits were dismis
sed by Judge John Rossetti on
Aug. 9.
Objectors Present Case
Spokesman for tlie opposition
delegation present at Monday
night's meeting. John Walsh,
stated that objectors eon.sidei
themselves Cantonians and tha
the annexation of their area tc
this city would be an unnatural
one.
Mr. Walsh claimed he represented 116 properly owners in
the Knolls allotment, located in
the southeast corner of. t h e
annexation area.
He added that he would present more material at a later
meeting clarifying the objectors' position.
Master Plan 'Tied' Down
Thc city lost a chance to get
started on the Master Plan
when a needed three-fourths
positive vote failed to materialize on a Youtz motion.
Councilman Russell Y o u t z
moved that the rules be suspended and that Council give
Ebasco the go-ahead on t h e
first phase of the proposed
Comprehensive Survey.
Voting "no" on tlie motion
were Councilmen Donald Newbauer. Charles Strausser a n cl
John Weber.
The threesome already had
voted "no" on a prior Youtz
motion lo accept the Planning
Commission recommendation to
proceed with the plan, forcing
the mayor to vote to break the
tie.
Mayor George Swindell's
"yes" vole got. the recommendation accepted, but was not
enough to pass a resolution to
enter into contract with Eba.s-
co.
The New York management
consulting firm had proposed to
begin work now on a Land Use
survey, the first, step in preparing ;i Master Plan for the City.
Tliis would siiecd up by 6f
days or more the completion o
the project, since, unless cour.
oil reverses its position, wor.
low cannot begin until federa
"unds to help finance the proj
jet are approved.

nation for funds is not likoh

Wk&t ife Cooperation?
In -eveiy time of national crisis or emergency, we are
M^gied to "cooperate." The word is used almost as though it
A^ferfe iViagie, *as if, when by some happy chance we should
aJchieve a 'state of cooperation, all our troubles would disap-
$£at. Tt really doesn't need a national emergency to tell us
mat. We know perfectly well that if all groups in this
feouhtiry, or in the world, would work together, nine-tenths
i>f Our difficulties would disappear.
But with, the repetition of the word cooperation has
'ccMtrie ibhfusioh. Each group wants its opponents to cooperate with it — only when, they say cooperate they generally
mean give in. Khrushchev is the perfect example of this line
of reasoning. And each group unfortunately uses as an excuse for its own shortcomings, the statement that the other
side won't cooperate, forgetting that there must be.a real
"give and take" attitude, not merely the will to take.
Let's not try to determine where the blame lies, but get
back to the fact of just what cooperation is. According to
the dictionary it is "joint action — working together."
Tlie Communists don't think we can do it. They fear
freedom. They believe that a nation of free men will not
cooperate, that they will pull in a thousand different and
selfish directions at once — and get nowhere. But they are
ignorant of the basic meaning of cooperation.
. Cooperation-is a JOINT action. It means that all-will
haiV6 "to freely and intelligently move together, like a machine.where each part has its particular function to fulfill,
biit also like a machine that is built correctly, so that each
part is capable of taking up its share of the stress and
strain.
By all means let us cooperate — but cooperate by each
doing the full measure of his share in the work for the
common good. Cooperate not in comparison with another's
cooperation with you—but to the fullest extent of your own
powers. The command is, as it always has been, "Give and
it shall be given unto you . . . For with the same measure
ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again."
Answer To Terror
It is not surprising that the Soviet announcement of renewed nuclear weapons tests sounds to many observers like
tlie kneel of doom. This reaction has prevaded much of the
early comment from tlie world's great capitals, and there is
good reason, for it.
There is a strong likelihood, foi1 example, that the So-
"viet move reflects failure to understand the attitude and
motivation which undergird the West's position. The Kremlin appears to be unconvinced, despite President Kennedy's
special meeting with'Khrushchev to make our determination
unmistakably clear to him, that the West has, both the will
and capacity to resist. Tlie danger of Soviet miscalculation,
a danger moi'e serious than almost any other, now seems to
be heightened.
,For all its perilous implications, however, the Soviet an-
notocement also m&y bring certain advantages to the West.
It is riot soft, headed optimism, but a realistic effort tob seek
out what is best in a bad situation, that brings us to this
conclusion. By the manner and timing.of its declaration the
Krerrilin has blatantly announced to the woVld-—and particularly to the uncommitted nations whose delegates were assembling in Belgrade when Mosco\y spoke — that its method is the method of terror and violence, and that it seeks by
threats to bend mankind to its will.
The contrast between this and the West's patient ef-
f orts.to .bring about workable .control ,and inspection of nuclear tests -will not be lost upon the woilld. This will be especially true ii the West makes full use of the propaganda advantage-which the Kremlin has callously provided.

Christiane (iGerman form of
Christine) came by jet early in
August to New York where she
oined 180 oilier students from
France, Germany, the Nether-
ands, Switzerland, Brazil, the
2ongo, Japan, Korea, Finland,
Sweden, Iceland, Norway and
Austria. They had four day.

student.
Her oldest brother's experience as a college exchange student in St. Paul, Minn, a few-

to apply for the program. Her

mnhies In Brief
The welcome mat is being laid as the long-awaited annexation to tiie South nears its final stage. At its regular
meeting Monday night, City Council unanimously approved
the first reading of Ordinance 2167 to annex 728.68 acres
of Plain Township.
The addition of the large
residential section would increase the size of the community approximately 2o per
cent and up the population
more than 3,000.
Although there is no industry in tlie area to be annexed,
the section includes more
than 900 homes and Orchard
Hill Elementary School.
Boundaries of the area arc
55th St. and Schneider Rd. on
the north, Frazer Ave. on the
east. 50th St. on the south and
Jonathan Ave. and Arrowhead
Country Club on the west.
Annexation proceedings, initiated in June. 1960, were delayed, when opponents of t h e
annexation filed lawsuits in January. Both suits were dismis
sed by Judge John Rossetti on
Aug. 9.
Objectors Present Case
Spokesman for tlie opposition
delegation present at Monday
night's meeting. John Walsh,
stated that objectors eon.sidei
themselves Cantonians and tha
the annexation of their area tc
this city would be an unnatural
one.
Mr. Walsh claimed he represented 116 properly owners in
the Knolls allotment, located in
the southeast corner of. t h e
annexation area.
He added that he would present more material at a later
meeting clarifying the objectors' position.
Master Plan 'Tied' Down
Thc city lost a chance to get
started on the Master Plan
when a needed three-fourths
positive vote failed to materialize on a Youtz motion.
Councilman Russell Y o u t z
moved that the rules be suspended and that Council give
Ebasco the go-ahead on t h e
first phase of the proposed
Comprehensive Survey.
Voting "no" on tlie motion
were Councilmen Donald Newbauer. Charles Strausser a n cl
John Weber.
The threesome already had
voted "no" on a prior Youtz
motion lo accept the Planning
Commission recommendation to
proceed with the plan, forcing
the mayor to vote to break the
tie.
Mayor George Swindell's
"yes" vole got. the recommendation accepted, but was not
enough to pass a resolution to
enter into contract with Eba.s-
co.
The New York management
consulting firm had proposed to
begin work now on a Land Use
survey, the first, step in preparing ;i Master Plan for the City.
Tliis would siiecd up by 6f
days or more the completion o
the project, since, unless cour.
oil reverses its position, wor.
low cannot begin until federa
"unds to help finance the proj
jet are approved.
